I'm not seeing that this food is "better" than Blue's Wildlife version. Is it?

I have stuck with Blue Buffalo Adult Weight Management. I felt it's the safest and best for my 3 Doxies.

I'm not familiar with Blue's Wildlife, so can only say that I was happy with Orijen's dry food. I have since changed to Honest Kitchen dehydrated food and would recommend it, if you are looking for a change. My Pup has lost weight and no longer has gas. Love it

California Natural is a much, much better quality food. There is more chicken and there is no corn or wheat in the California Natural. If you switch to this you'll definitely be downgrading.

I was wondering that myself. VERY disappointed. I've been buying this food from Amazon for a long time, but I might go back to the pet store to buy it now. Hope Amazon lowers the price soon.

The company has confirmed that there is no difference whatsoever between the contents of the blue and "white" (beige) boxes. Only the packaging (appearance/colors/wording) is different. The white/beige box states on the package back: "Especially produced for the natural product industry." The "natural product" crowd is generally better educated and willing/able to spend more for what they perceive to be a more natural and superior product. In this case, they are spending more for exactly what is in the blue box. Even though the blue box doesn't say things like "wild caught" or "pure" olive oil, the company confirmed that the two different boxes contain exactly the same product/ingredients. Case closed.

It's not as high protein as the wilderness line, but it is grain free. My dog likes this food much more than blue buffalo. We will occasionally buy a small bag of the wilderness and mix it in with this, since the wilderness is also higher in calories.

I didn't see any difference in the ingredients. My cats are still drinking it so I don't think they see a difference in the taste, although we'll never be sure of that. LOL!

I can't remember if I tried that one, but the two I did try were both soupy and very unappetizing. They looked like something you might drizzle over dry kibble, but not be the main meal.

Susan, that's a little like asking what "blue" looks like. I think you might just need to buy some to try it, or try some in a restaurant meal.

There's a bigger environmental impact with krill than with anchovies and sardines which are more sustainably harvested. Just taking a quick look around, I haven't found any information that suggests one is better than the other.

All you can do is get a small bag and try it. My dog (who is very very picky), likes the venison version but my sisters dogs (4) wont eat it. My dog liked the duck formula and fish one at first, then stopped eating both so I went back to venison. Good luck.

I had the same problem with "Wilderness". It am unsure what they call the "bits" in this food, but my dogs stopped eating this product, too, even though I LOVE IT. They don't like the flavor, even though the food is excellent for them. The grain-free / gluten-free aspect really helped my dogs' energy levels, playfulness, and overall "brightness" of appearance. I switched to another gluten-free brand, with the same positive results, and both dogs like the flavor much more.

The difference is strictly in the variety. Since they are both variety packs, you have to wonder why one costs more. The answer is CHICKEN. I feed my cat all kinds of Tiki Cat varieties, but since they start off more expensive than most other brands, I'm usually not willing to spend even a little more for chicken.Presumably chicken is better for cats. I also buy Fromm's dry food, and I think the chicken variety of that is more expensive too (so I usually go with the salmon).If you don't want to pay more for a variety pack, you can usually find 12-packs of one flavor for a pretty good price. And since they're all Tiki Cat, they're all high enough quality. The difference is strictly in the variety. Since they are both variety packs, you have to wonder why one costs more.

Hi Dr. Rusty. Honestly i did not notice a difference between this and a previous brand's "regular" flavour seaweed snack. The next time i try these i will try to pay more attention to the flavour. Please don't hold your breath however, as i will likely try a different brand next time. (Only because i've tried just one other brand so far -- with a "regular" or "plain" flavor, IIRC -- the two different brands tasted exactly the same to me, though i admittedly did not do a proper side-by-side taste test with both products present at the same time.)

This is weird - the 2 lb.container I bought has "Non-GMO" in blue letters right below the "NOW" logo. But the picture of the current product doesn't say that... You'll probably have to ask the seller why it's different now. Just guessing - but it looks like the current ingredients have become poorer in quality. Good luck.

If I remember correctly Blue Buffalo is a little smaller than what we use (Royal Canin). I think it is too small for the large one.

My cats are both males (my son also uses this product and his are both males too) and love the King, which is seafood. I have used the Queen, which has chicken, and other meats. They like both kinds, and I didn't see any difference in the long run. I don't think one is better than the other, unless the fish oil helps with nice coats. It just came down to seafood or meats. So I went with price and use mostly the King.
